Hi, Louis!
I’m writing to tell you something about the customs(風(fēng)俗) and festivals.
Everyone loves holidays since one doesn’t need to go to school or work. Although all holidays mean no school and work, but not all of them are the same. On some of them you go out with friends; on others you stay home to eat, talk, and have fun with your family. For example in the USA, everyone thinks New Year’s Eve and New Year are both for playing with friends. Christmas is the time to stay home and exchange gifts with family members. The opposite (相反) is true in Japan though. For example, in Japan, New Year is for spending time with the family to eat, talk, have fun, and go to the temples. But Christmas is for boy and girl friends to go out and exchange gifts. Originally Christmas should be to celebrate(慶祝) the birth of Christ.
I have been interested in foreign customs since I was little. If you learn these different holiday customs, you will learn about different histories and cultures. This is much more interesting than learning them at the library from morning to evening.
Loves,
Judge the following sentence true(T) or (F)
【小題1】Usually, nobody goes to school or works during holidays.

解析試題分析：這篇短文講述的是不同的國(guó)家有不同的節(jié)日習(xí)俗，文章中給我們舉了新年和圣誕節(jié)的例子來(lái)證明。通過(guò)了解這些不同的節(jié)日習(xí)俗，我們可以了解不同國(guó)家的文化很歷史。
【小題1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章的第二段Although all holidays mean no school and work, but not all of them are the same，雖然所有的節(jié)假日意味著不上學(xué)，不上班，但并不是全部都一樣。故這里是說(shuō)通常情況下，在節(jié)假日的時(shí)候是可以不上學(xué)或不上班的。故這個(gè)句子表達(dá)正確。
【小題2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章的第二段可知，在美國(guó)圣誕節(jié)的時(shí)候是要呆在家里，和家人在一起；但是在日本卻是恰恰相反的。圣誕節(jié)的時(shí)候，男女朋友要出去玩，交換禮物。故這個(gè)句子表達(dá)錯(cuò)誤。
【小題3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章的第三段我們可以知道，每個(gè)國(guó)家有不同的過(guò)節(jié)假日的風(fēng)俗習(xí)慣，因此，慶祝節(jié)日的方式在不同的國(guó)家里是不一樣的。故這句話表達(dá)錯(cuò)誤。
【小題4】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章的最后一段If you learn these different holiday customs, you will learn about different histories and cultures.，如果你了解了這些不同的節(jié)日習(xí)俗，你就能了解不同的歷史和文化。由此可知，這句話的表述是正確的。
【小題5】主旨大意題。這篇短文給我們介紹了不同國(guó)家有不同的節(jié)日習(xí)俗，不只是日本的節(jié)日習(xí)俗。通過(guò)了解這些不同的風(fēng)俗習(xí)慣，我們可以了解不同國(guó)家的歷史和文化。故這句話表述錯(cuò)誤。

Libraries give kids a quiet and safe place to read and learn. For over 100 years, libraries have played an important role in Americans’ education. But how are these book-filled buildings changing with the times? You may be surprised to find out.
Benjamin Franklin famously founded (創(chuàng)建) America’s first lending library in 1731. But the public library system got its biggest development in the American history in the late 1800’s. Businessman Andrew Carnegie donated millions of dollars to help build free public libraries across the country. Between 1886 and 1919, Carnegie’s donations helped build 1,679 new libraries.
Carnegie believed that libraries could offer the chances to Americans, young and old. He knew that the more libraries there were, the more people would have opportunities to read and use books, speeches and news.
If you can easily find a public library in your community(社區(qū)), you’ll get more chances. After all, the United States has 9,225 public libraries. Today, libraries keep growing. Seven tenths of the libraries have free Internet. It provides much more information and opportunities to ask for jobs online.
Libraries are also teaching kids about the fun of reading. The new program Read! Build! Play! adds reading into playtime. As kids listen to a book that is being read aloud, they use Legos (樂高積木) to build images(圖像) from the story happily. Today’s libraries are always looking for creative programs to bring people into the library.
Benjamin Franklin once said, “The doors of wisdom(智慧) are never shut.” As long as the doors of public libraries are open, what he said is most certainly correct!
【小題1】 Benjamin Franklin founded the first lending library in _______.
| A．1731 | B．1800 | C．1886 | D．1919 |
| A．2767. | B．6458. | C．9225. | D．1679. |
| A．②①③④ | B．②③④① | C．③④①② | D．①②③④ |
| A．libraries have played an important role in Americans’ education |
| B．public libraries in the US should never close the doors |
| C．the writer doesn’t agree with Benjamin Franklin |
| D．libraries help people to open the doors of wisdom |
| A．the libraries in the world |
| B．libraries and opportunities |
| C．libraries teach kids to read and learn |
| D．the development of the American libraries |

Andy was born in China 17 years ago. In 2007, she went to the USA with her family. As a high school student, she has found many differences between Chinese and Americans:
About money
Americans like to spend more than they have, so many of them are always in debt(欠債). But Chinese usually spend less than they have, so many of them always have money left in the bank.
The American kids themselves make their own money. Most Chinese kids always ask their parents for money.
About friends
Most American parents let their sons or daughters make friends by themselves. They never ask them about their friends while Chinese parents usuaolly enjoy knwing more about their children’s friends in many different ways, and usually stop them from staying out too late with friends.
About education
Many American students have less homework to do while many Chinese students have much.
Many American girls take part in sports, dancing and singing groups while many Chinese girls take part in study groups.
Many American parents think there is no need to send their children to an expensive school. It’s different in China. Many Chinese parents would do anything to send their children to expensive schools though their family isn’t rich enough.

Every culture has a recognized (公認(rèn)的) point when a child becomes an adult, when rules must be followed and tests passed.
In China, although teenagers can get their ID cards at 16, many only see themselves as an adult when they are 18. In the US, where everyone drives, the main step to the freedom of adult life is learning to drive. At 16, American teens take their driving test. When they have their license（證）, they drive into the grown-up world.
"Nobody wants to ride the cheese bus to school," said Eleanor Fulham, 17. "It's like you're not cool if you don't have a car," she said.
According to a recent research, 41% of 16 to 19 year olds in the US own cars, up from 23% in 1985. Although, most of these cars are bought by parents, some teens get part-time jobs to help pay.
Not all families can afford cars for their children. In cities with undergrounds and limited(有限的) parking, some teenagers don't want them. But in rich areas outside the city, if there are no undergrounds, and bicycles are more for fun than cars, it is strange for a teenager not to have a car.
But police say 16-year-olds have almost three times more accidents than 18 and 19-year-olds. This has made many parents stop before letting their kids drive. They need to wait until they are more experienced.
Julie Susiana, of Virginia, decided that her son Chad, 15, will wait until he is 17 to apply for his learner's permit (許可)
Chad said he has accepted his parents' decision, although it has caused some laughing from his friends. "They say that I am unlucky," he said. "But I'd rather be alive than driving, and I don't really trust my friends on the road either."
In China as more families get cars, more 18-year-olds learn to drive. Will this become a big step to becoming an adult?
【小題1】16-year-old drivers have more accidents possibly because _______.
| A．they want to show themselves off |
| B．they are not experienced drivers |
| C．older people always drive better |
| D．they never drive carefully on the road |
| A．How rich the family is. |
| B．Whether the kid is old enough. |
| C．What traffic condition there is around. |
| D．Whether it's practically needed. |
| A．a(chǎn)n American culture about teenagers' driving |
| B．a(chǎn) change in the Chinese culture |
| C．a(chǎn) cultural difference between America and China |
| D．the relationship between driving and a person's development |
| A．Cars Helping You to Grow Up | B．Driving into the Grown-up World |
| C．Teenagers' Driving in America | D．Recognized Point of Becoming an Adult |

Making mistakes
It’s good to make mistakes．And here’s why．
First of a11．mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying new things．It’s always good to try new things because when you’re trying new things you are growing．If you never try anything new,how can you improve and develop?The simple answer is,“You can’t.”
Another good thing about mistakes is this：When you are making mistakes，you are learning．Consider this：Edison failed 1 0,000 times— before he perfected the light bulb．When he was asked how it felt to fail that many times，he replied that he hadn’t failed 1 0,000 times，but rather had learned 10,000 things that didn’t work．
Finally,when you make a mistake，you are much closer to success．Why?Because every time you make a mistake，you are one step closer to success．But it doesn’t mean that you can make mistakes without thinking．Instead，when you try something new,you have to think it over，so that you can keep away from some unnecessary mistakes．
There is an old saying that goes．“If you are not making mistakes．you are not trying hard enough.’’ So go forward and make mistakes．And learn．And grow．And succeed．
【小題1】According to the passage，when you are making a mistake，that means ．
| A．you’re thinking | B．you’re growing |
| C．you’re falling behind | D．you’re wasting time |
| A．move forward | B．never fail |
| C．1earn nothing | D．make no mistakes |
| A．we are learning when we make mistakes |
| B．we should spend lots of time making mistakes |
| C．when we try new thjngs,we should think them over |
| D．the more mistakes we make，the further we are from success |
| A．not to make mistakes often |
| B．how to become successful quickly |
| C．it’s good to make mistakes |
| D．how to stay away from mistakes |
